Walter and Ingrid Trobisch and the Globalization of Modern, Christian Sexual Ethics

History & Biography

“Working amid changing attitudes about love, sex, and marriage, as well as decolonization movements in Africa, Christian missionaries Walter and Ingrid Trobisch influenced Christian sexual ethics in the twentieth century. Stasson deftly captures how the Trobisches, through books and correspondence with young adults in Africa and the United States, became multidirectional conduits of a global ‘conversation’ about sex and marriage.”
